Lot of assumptions there.

Now the question is: will they demilitarize if/when the threat dissipates? Methinks the EU is repeating the fatal appeasement strategy of the 1930s.

This is a big one for me. Decoupling social activities from consumerism so people can access human connection without implicit or explicit paywalls.

Right. They also sent bullets and untrained security personnel to shoot unarmed civilians seeking to access said aid.

Observe the resurgence of right-wing nationalism in the West.

It's not accidental that this phenomenon is occurring specifically within the context of algorithmic social media exclusively controlled by multinational corporations. It is collusion between these companies and certain political entities to consolidate political and economic power within the fortresses of wealthy Western countries, as a defensive posture to the projected collapse of habitability and globalized trade across the world. By exploiting peoples fears and internalized biases, these architects are redefining the West to meet their economic agenda.

Simply put, the political moment the West is living through is a manufactured cultural shift intended to psychologically prime the populace of said regions for the steady collapse of international law and human rights in the face of unprecedented ecological disaster and the resulting mass migration of displaced people.

Instead of reckoning with their fundamental role in creating this dire circumstance and pursuing a policy of redistribution of wealth and resources to minimize the impacts globally, it's becoming increasingly apparent that the wealthy oligarchs of the world are instead doing away with liberal values and leaning into a nostalgic ideology of social Darwinism and the belief that wealth is a product of intrinsic superiority.

Theres a beautiful video circulating of Seun Kuti speaking to a crowd and telling them that if Europe (and by extension, the West) can free itself from the destructive ideologies of its past, it will inherently lead to resolution of the conflicts in Gaza, Sudan, and the Congo. It iterates the point I am presenting here in a beautifully succinct way and I recommend watching it.

I think tools misrepresents it. It seems more like we're in the transitional stage of providing massive amounts of data for LLMs to train on, until they can eventually develop enough cognition to train themselves, automate their own processes and upgrades, and eventually replace the need for human cognition. If anything, we are the tool now.

Sharing my thoughts isnt lecturing. Sit down and stop being condescending.

I empathize with the sentiment and agree with the argument that Europe should invest in its own defense infrastructure, particularly if Putin is gearing up to make a move.

That being said, Im increasingly wary of Europe's willingness to appease Trump, and find it probable that, if right-wing parties continue making political gains, this same infrastructure will be turned against marginalized communities in these same countries; in a similar vein to the U.S regime's attacks against immigrants and dissenters.

Again, I'm not opposed to re-armament, but I hope EU citizens exercise more vigilance and skepticism in this era of resurging nationalism and protectionism.

Jeez. How sad. I'm done with you. Good luck.

I don't think Biden stole anything. I think corporate Dem donors and leadership are legitimately afraid of a popular socialist movement.

If you're arguing that Kamala was the best option, guess what: she lost. If you think running the incumbent would have been better, that's just more evidence that the party doesn't listen, or doesn't care. Perhaps you want to blame the voters? Good luck. 🤣

I don't disagree with your fundamental point; but mindlessly rallying around a political party that doesn't listen to its base is not only stupid, it has become dangerous.

Being afraid to lose is possibly the most pathetic excuse I can imagine to not try anything new.
